In order to conduct examinations: - at least two dates shall be set in the winter examination period for each course of the winter semester; - at least two dates shall be set in the summer examination period for each course of the summer semester; - at least one date shall be set in the autumn examination period for each course of the winter and summer semesters - except at the faculties where compulsory courses are taught in both semesters of the academic year, in which case at least one date shall be set for each course taught in the summer semester. 9. The dates and number of examinations in foreign languages shall be laid down in the regulations for the completion of foreign language courses at the Warsaw University of Technology. 5. Organisation of degree programmes 1. Students shall follow degree programmes within a given field of study or macrofield of study. The Faculty Board may establish specialisation areas within a field or macro-field of study. 2. Degree programmes shall be provided in accordance with overall study schedules and curricula established by the Faculty Board, following the guidelines o f the Senate of the Warsaw University of Technology and after consultation with the faculty-level student self-government body. 3. During his or her studies, a student shall be required to complete successfully all courses specified as compulsory in the overall study schedule for a given field of study and specialisation area, as well as elective courses which have a duration corresponding to the required number of credits. A course shall be understood as a set of classes which are assessed by an overall grade and which are allocated a specific number of credits referred to in section 7 below. 3

5 4. The nominal duration of full-time programmes shall be seven or eight semesters for first-cycle programmes leading to the degree of inzynier, six semesters for first-cycle programmes leading to the degree of licencjat, and three or four semesters for second-cycle programmes. 5. The nominal duration of part-time programmes shall be determined by the Faculty Board and may be one or two semesters longer than the nominal duration of fulltime programmes. Classes within part-time programmes and those within fulltime programmes should be taught separately. 6. The organisation of degree programmes at the Warsaw University of Technology shall be based on a Flexible Study System. This system shall enable a student, in accordance with certain rules, to choose the issues to be studied through the selection of a specialisation area and individual courses, to take and complete elements of courses at other faculties or other higher education institutions, and to have some freedom to choose his or her pace of study. Student achievements shall be documented and compared by means of a credit system. 7. Each course shall be allocated a specific number of credits as determined by the Faculty Board. The nominal number of credits for courses in one semester of a full-time degree programme shall be 30. For a part-time degree programme, where its nominal duration is longer than that of a full-time programme, the number of credits for one semester shall be proportionally smaller, with the total number of credits for the entire part-time programme being the same as for a fulltime programme. For the purposes of mobility between higher education institutions, these credits shall be regarded as ECTS (European Credit Transfer System) credits. 8. A detailed class timetable, established by the Dean after consultation with the faculty-level self-government body, shall be published at least two weeks before the beginning of a semester. 9. Arrangements for the organisation and completion of foreign language courses shall be laid down in the regulations for the completion of foreign language courses at the Warsaw University of Technology. 10.

A student shall have the right to attend classes of the semester for which he or she is registered and, upon the consent of the Dean, classes scheduled in higher semesters. 13. The right to attend classes may be restricted by the requirements concerning the sequence of courses to be taken and, in the case of elective courses, by the size of student groups. 14. Before the beginning of classes, by the deadline set by the Dean, a student shall submit in the Dean s Office a declaration concerning the courses which he or she 4

6 will take in a given semester or the individual classes which he or she will.attend. If such a declaration is not submitted, a student shall be enrolled on all compulsory courses included in. the schedule of the semester for which he or she is registered and the courses scheduled in the previous semesters which he or she has not yet completed. 15. After a review of declarations the Dean shall draw up lists of students enrolled on individual courses. 16. Attendance at all classes for which a student has been enrolled shall be compulsory, with the exception of lectures. 17. The teacher responsible for a given course shall provide students during the first class with: the course syllabus and recommended reading list; - the course regulations laying down the required form of attendance of classes, the methods of continuous assessment of student performance, the procedure and schedule for the completion of the course, the bases on which nonattendance of classes may be justified, the form of examination, permissible use of any aids during tests, the rule for determining the overall grade for the course and other rules; - the teacher s office hours and office number.

In this case, the teacher responsible for the classes shall be required to publish arrangements for a resit test for a given lecture. 4. A student shall have access to his or her assessed assignments on dates specified by the teacher responsible for the classes. 5. If, during the assessment procedure by which credit is awarded for classes, the teacher conducting assessment establishes that the work submitted by a student is not his or her own work or that a student has used unauthorised materials, the student shall receive a failing grade for these classes. 6. Credit for classes shall be given together with a grade, except for practical placements, physical education classes and classes organised for information purposes as specified by the Faculty Board. 7. A student raising objections to the correctness of the assessment conducted by the teacher in order to give credit for classes may submit a request for reassessment 5

7 before a board. The request should be submitted either to the immediate superior of the teacher conducting assessment or to the Dean within four days of the date on which the results of the assessment are communicated.

In specific cases, at the request of the Dean and upon the consent of the Vice-Rector for Academic Affairs, classes taught as part of one course during one semester may represent more than unit for which credit is given separately as for a full course. 2. The overall grade for a given course shall be based on the grades for individual classes and the grade for an examination, where conducted, and shall be calculated in accordance with the rules laid down in the course regulations. Credit for a course shall be given and the grade shall be determined and entered in the student record book by the teacher responsible for the course. If this teacher is unable to do so, credit shall be given and entered in the student record book by a person authorised by the Dean. 3. The teacher responsible for a given course may exempt, fully or partially, a student participating in a research or application-oriented project, a research camp or a practical placement from attendance at classes taught as part of a course which is thematically related to the work carried out by the student. Credit and a grade for these classes shall be given by the teacher responsible for a given course. 4. Upon successful completion of a full course, a student shall be awarded the number of credits allocated to the course. 9. Grading scale 1. The following grades and their verbal descriptors shall be used when assessing student achievements in a given course: five or very good four and a half or above good four or good three and a half or fairly good three or satisfactory two or fail. 2. The grade 2 shall be equivalent to non-completion of a given course by a student. 7

9 10. Arrangements for students following a part of the curriculum outside their home faculty 1. A student may follow a part of the curriculum at another faculty of the Warsaw University of Technology or another higher education institution in Poland or abroad, in particular on the basis o f inter-university agreements resulting from the participation of the Warsaw University of Technology in national or international student exchange programmes. 2. In order to follow a specific part of the curriculum outside his or her home faculty, a student shall be required to obtain the consent of the Dean. 3. Credit for all courses successfully completed, upon the consent of the Dean, outside a student s home faculty shall be recognised as fulfilling a part of the curriculum requirements in his or her home faculty. This means that the courses successfully completed outside the home faculty must be recognised as equivalent to a set of compulsory or elective courses, as determined by the Dean, which have the same total number of ECTS credits and are included in the curriculum of the home faculty. W here courses successfully completed in another higher education institution are not allocated any number of credits, the number of credits shall be determined by the Dean. The grade received by the student in another institution shall be converted into its equivalent in the system used at the Warsaw University of Technology by the Dean. 11. Completion of a semester of study 1. A student shall be required to complete successfully each successive semester of study. 2.
